β-Phenylethylamines and the isoquinoline alkaloids

“…O-Methylcorypalline has been isolated from Berberis densiflora 4 and from Phoebe minutiflora 14 and stephaoxocanidine has been isolated from Stephania cepharantha. 15 A review of the alkaloids of cacti of Gymnocalycium species has been published. 16 An X-ray crystallographic study of corydaldine has been reported.…”
